1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The emergence of drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, demands the development of new drugs and new drug targets. We have recently reported that the d-phenylalanine benzoxazole Q112 has potent antibacterial activity against this pathogen with a distinct mechanism of action from other antimycobacterial agents. Q112 and previously reported derivatives were unstable in plasma and no free compound could be observed. Here we expand the structure-activity relationship for antimycobacterial activity and find nonhydrolyzable derivatives with decreased plasma binding. We also show that there is no correlation between antibacterial activity and inhibition of PanG, a putative target for these compounds.
